Lyrics
It’s Nothing
I am haunted I am wanted
But I know it’s nothing
I am hazy I am crazy
But I know it’s nothing
I am walking I am talking
But I know it’s nothing
I am lying I am crying
But I know it’s nothing
Chorus:
I can see that nothing matters
No one tries and no one dares
I can feel a life in tatters
I will know that no one cares
I am dreaming I am screaming
But I know it’s nothing
I am heated I am treated
But I know it’s nothing
I am bending I am rending
But I know it’s nothing
I am magic I am tragic
But I know it’s nothing
repeat chorus
Rachel
Rachel had no vagina
Rachel had cogs and gears
Rachel had thoughts and feelings
Rachel had hopes and fears
She had a perfect body
And her bones made of steel
Her brain was a computer
Rachel had sex appeal
She was a service android
Keeping house for a man
Vacuum and do the dishes
Loving was not the plan
Chorus
Rachel, Rachel’s not a woman
Rachel, Rachel is a drone
Rachel, Rachel’s just a robot
Rachel, Rachel’s all alone
Rachel needed to tell him
What was there in her heart
She wanted his attention
Needed something to start
He kissed her lips of rubber
He felt her plastic breast
He told her Stick to cleaning
He said That would be best
Repeat chorus
A Simple Drone
I am a simple drone
Though sometimes I wish I was a person
I don’t know what to do
But I wish, but I wish, that I had a plan
I feel just like a clone
And I’m sure my condition will worsen
He is decaying too
And I know, and I know, that he thinks he can
Chorus:
We are happy here
We are working like we’re meant to do
But I see it’s clear
That we’re not meant to have a clue
I hear another moan
Pretty soon someone’s gonna be cursin’
He will deny it’s true
But I think, but I think, he’ll become a man
I fear that something’s blown
We are ordered to begin dispursin’
I think he got a clue
And I feel, and I feel, happy that he ran
repeat chorus
Busy Busy
Why does it seem I’m always running
It’s never like I have time to rest
Life is hard and I must be cunning
It’s as though I am taking a test
I just keep on moving faster
But it looks like I’m courting disaster
Why can’t I get a little money
I am not able to get ahead
I am here in the land of honey
All that I need is a little bread
I wish that my life was easy
I do not like this feeling all queasy
My happiness is often fleeting
I am not really sure as to why
Maybe resentment is still seething
I never get a piece of the pie
Sometimes life is overrated
I’m getting nowhere although I’ve waited
What a Shame
Chorus
What a shame, what a pity
What a pity, what a shame (8x)
Although I did not choose her
I am going to use her
Because she is a loser
That's too damn bad
Repeat chorus
Since I know she’s subverting
I will always be flirting
Even though she is hurting
That’s too damn bad
Repeat chorus
I will never believe her
So I always deceive her
And I’m going to leave her
That’s too damn bad
Repeat chorus
Possessed
Feel the need to get some rest
She wants you to get undressed
You are starting to feel stressed
You are thinking she’s possessed
She is under some voodoo
She is smoking residue
You cannot know what to do
You’re afraid it’s overdue
You can find no use for her
And regret what you’ll incur
She is now a prisoner
Matters not what you prefer
Chorus:
It’s just going to control
Paradigm and hyperbole
Bury your life in a hole
Better to assume your role
You tell her your unimpressed
You begin to fell depressed
She denies what you suggest
And you know she is possessed
Something’s making her this way
Programming her to obey
She’s already gone astray
And she’s fading into gray
Testing out what it designed
Prototyping womankind
It is eating up her mind
And will take what it can find
Repeat chorus 2x
Paranoia
They’re watching you at your work and in your home
They know about all your medical records
They monitor your accounts and your credit
They’re watching you to see just who you’ve been with
They know what you buy at the supermarket
They will know you even better than you do
A Woman’s Touch
You say you’ll do anything for me
Why don’t you do the dishes?
You say you’ll do anything for me
Why don’t you sweep and dust?
I’m not asking for much
This place could use a woman’s touch
You say you’ll do anything for me
Why don’t you do the laundry?
You say you’ll do anything for me
Why don’t you mop and scrub?
I’m not asking for much
This place could use a woman’s touch
Chorus:
You tell me at night I make you so happy
Why won’t you do the same for me?
Is it really so hard to be a domestic?
It’s just something that I need
Refrain:
You say you’ll do anything for me
(anything for me)
You say you’ll do anything for me
(anything for me)
You say you’ll do anything for me
Why don’t you fix some supper?
You say you’ll do anything for me
Why don’t you get some beer?
I’m not asking for much
This place could use a woman’s touch
You say you’ll do anything for me
Why don’t you scrub the toilet?
You say you’ll do anything for me
Why don’t you make the bed?
I’m not asking for much
This place could use a woman’s touch
Repeat chorus Repeat refrain
Dream
She thinks he’s cute and
She wants him to like her
She is so nervous and
Feels very unsure
He sees her there and
He knows that she wants him
But he’s attached and
She knows chances are slim
Chorus:
Still she can dream that
They will be together
Holding his hand as they
Walk through the heather
She scents herself with
Vanilla and lotus
She does her hair and
She hopes he will notice
He smiles and waves when he
Sees her approaching
But turns away when he
Feels she’s encroaching
Repeat chorus twice
Another Drone
I am just another
Drone that’s run away
Though they will retrieve me
I am free today
I do not like working
Doing what I am told
I want to enjoy life
Before I am old
I need time to ponder
Have thoughts of my own
I know I am more than
Just another drone
I don’t want to be told
What I have to feel
I would rather know that
What I felt was real
Chorus:
Longing for my freedom
Being left alone
I do not want to be
Just another drone
My programming tells me
I should be at peace
Satisfied and happy
Bothered not the least
But I am resisting
I do not know why
I think I must flee now
Feel the need to fly
Repeat chorus
Repeat first verse
